Cloud Data Logger by Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi is a credit-card-sized single-board computer. Because it is low-cost and easy to equip with various types of sensors, using Raspberry Pi as a cloud data logger is one of its ideal use cases.

This article introduces how to transport sensor data from Raspberry Pi to the cloud, using Fluentd as the data collector. For the cloud side, we’ll use the Treasure Data cloud data service as an example, but you can use any cloud service in its place.
